Is your dad the Ultimate?

A Hemel Hempstead pub is giving people the opportunity to show their dad how much they care this Father’s Day, as it launches a search for Hemel’s best dads.

The Pommel Horse, on Jarman Square, is calling for locals to nominate their dad online, to be in with a chance of winning a £500 experience day for two and the title of Hungry Horse’s Ultimate Dad.

The Hungry Horse pub has launched its Do It for Dad competition after discovering that only 17 per cent of Brits tell their dads they love them on Father’s Day.

The pub’s general manager, Louis Amadis, said: “It was a real surprise to see just how many people aren’t showing their dads the appreciation they deserve.

“We want to encourage our local families to give something back to their dads this Father’s Day by giving them the opportunity to win a special bonding experience for two, as well as a parenting accolade like no other.”

People can nominate their dad on the Hungry Horse website until June 12.
